2nd graphics card(low end) for information display

TurkarYash

I have gtx 750ti currently and I also have a gt210 lying around. I am running two monitors , a 1080p (for gaming and primary work) and a 1050p(1680*1050). I was wondering if I installed the gt210 and ran my 2nd monitor on that will it benefit, will it help take some of 750ti's load or it wont matter?

You should use integrated graphics

His Cpu might not have them. And to answer your question it would work. You probably wont notice a big performance improvement though . But it would be cool.

you can use integrated by plugging that second monitor into your mobo's display headers (I'm assuming you are using hardware from your profile) or you could use the gt210.  Since you are running a 4790 I dont think you will notice any performance drop at all, especially with a 750ti.  I had my second monitor (also a 1050) running off of my integrated until I got a third monitor and set up surround, so everything is now plugged into my 980.
